Last month I bought a large tuber of taro/yam from Chinatown,all this while the yam was still sitting cold in the spare fridge in the garage..I totally forget about the taro/yam ,as people said it's out of sight out of mind..Some part of the tuber has gone bad..Actually I was planning to make Yam cake but since 1/2 of the tuber has gone bad I have to change the game plan!! How about Yam Balls? I believed Yam Balls is a Hakka dish..I think mostly every dish cook with taro is a Hakka dish,right?

Method:1:Peel and cut taro for steaming.Steam until cooked and soft.Combine ingredients(A) in a large bowl,knead into smooth dough.2:Prepare wok or large stock pot with water at high heat.Shape the dough into oblong shape and then into small ball.Use your fingertip to push lightly on the center of the small ball to create a shape like well .Repeat the same procedure until dough finish.3:When water rolling boil,add the shaped yam balls into the water,cook until they floated or cooked.Dish out cooked yam balls onto a large plate and sprinkle some oil and mix well to prevent from sticking with each others.4:Heat wok or large skillet with oil at medium high heat,add in chopped garlic,fry until lightly brown.Add in chopped chicken,dried tofu and mushroom ,stir well for 2-3 minutes.Then add in yam balls ,oyster sauce ground pepper,water and salt.Cook until sauce thicken .Check the seasoning .5:Sprinkle with some cut scallion and cut chili before dish out and serve warm.
